The 25-year-old penned a new deal in Naples last month, but it is said to include a release clause of £112m.

And it looks like Napoli are willing to cash in on the star as De Laurentiis has explained he already knows Osimhen is leaving.

He said: “This [Osimhen’s exit] was already known since this summer, our negotiations [over the new contract] were friendly, otherwise it would not have been so long.”

And the president even hinted at where Osimhen will be heading by the end of the season.

He said: “We knew he would go to Real Madrid, PSG or a top English club.”

Osimhen himself spoke out about his future earlier this week when he told CBS Sports that he already knows what his decision is.

He said: “I have already made my decision on the next step to do at the end of the season.

“I already made up my mind. I already have my plan, I know what I want to do, the next step I want to take.”

London rivals Arsenal and Chelsea have both been linked with a move for the Nigerian goalscorer.

And De Laurentiis’ comments could suggest they are well and truly in the race for the bagsman.
